Post-Gynecomastia Surgery Care : Massage, Compression & Skin Management

1 month ago

I recently underwent gynecomastia surgery and my pain has reduced, but I want to understand the proper aftercare. What precautions should I follow, how should I manage massages, compression garments, and skin tightening, and what should I do if I notice any issues like rashes or looseness?

Since your pain has reduced, focus on proper aftercare for smooth healing. Do gentle chest massages twice daily to reduce swelling and prevent fluid buildup. Wear your compression garment continuously for at least 6 weeks and adjust it if it becomes loose.

For better skin healing, use taping (like Dynaplast) if advised, but stop if irritation occurs. Keep the area clean with normal bathing and basic stitch care. Regular follow-up and consistent care will help ensure optimal recovery.
